Why is it called "Dusk Form"? Are the English

How you would name it?

>>33215205

Because the Japanese word can translate to either Twilight or Dusk

>>33215205
It's Dusk because it's the transition of Midday to Midnight form.

>>33215220
Twilight form.

Is that bland and a little too literal? Yes. But dusk specifically refers to the time of day around sunset. And I guarantee this new Lycanroc is equally as involved with the dusk as it is with the dawn.

They fucked up.

>>33215254
>But dusk specifically refers to the time of day around sunset

Which is when Ash's Rockruff evolves into it in the anime

Twilight makes more sense in terms of neutrality. Dusk means everyone will be asking about a Dawn version.
Also

>>33215254
>And I guarantee this new Lycanroc is equally as involved with the dusk as it is with the dawn

It's not.

>>33215296
>Dusk means everyone will be asking about a Dawn version.

Too late, it's not a "will be" but a "now are" because they fucked up.

>>33215296
People would be going on about a Daybreak version if they went with Twilight.

Because "Twilight" was already taken by pic related.

>>33215355
I don't get your point, just because that franchise exists doesn't mean no one can ever use the word twilight again.

>>33215340
That wouldn't make any sense because Daybreak is in no way the "opposite" of Twilight.

>>33215340
Maybe mouthbreathing retards who don't know what the fuck twilight means.

dawn really makes it seem like there will be a dusk from too. maybe they just wanted to avoid having anything to do with that shitty twilight franchise. Maybe it sounds too feminine too. idk.

>>33215365
I'm afraid that's how trademark and copyright laws work, anon.

I would call it"la naranja "

>>33215371
>>33215382
Sure, it can be used to mean both dawn and dusk, but the way the word twilight is commonly used is just for dusk. If not Daybreak, it would be Sunrise or something else people would be expecting.

>>33215397
Yeah, no

>>33215406
Sterilize yourself.

>>33215397
Can you like shut the fuck up and never post again? Don't you dare try and lower the knowledge of this board lower than it already is.

>>33215397
No, it does not work like that. Copyright doesn't apply to a single common word like twilight. Trademarks are signs used to distinguish different brands and a video game character is not something a reasonable person will confuse with a romance book/film series.

>>33215279

What the fuck are those dumb burgers doing

>>33215439
Calm down, friendo. I'm not saying it's not stupid people misunderstanding the word twilight. I'm saying those people would be expecting another form no matter what the localization team called the Dusk form unlike what >>33215296 this poster implied.

>>33215254
Holy shit
this new lycanroc is already in the anime?

>>33215561
Airing next Thursday.

>>33215205
>>33215230

As someone who speaks Japanese Tasogare is almost exclusively used for sunset. (It's also not a nornal dialogue word, it's mostly used in poems and songs and not casual speech) Same goes for twilight for that matter, yes it can mean both but before people started arguing about this I've only ever seen it used for dusk. My entire life I've never heard a single person describe the time before Dawn as twilight

>>33215205
Should have been Lycanroc - Vespertine form.

It's edgier and it's Day starting to show traits of Night, not Night starting to show traits of Day

with that in mind the English name makes it slightly less dumb

>>33215205
Our italian version is called "Crepuscolo"

>>33215254
twilight means gay, that's the reason it's dusk

>>33215885
Don't mind my fellow european, literally only the english version was dumb enough to not use "twilight"

>>33215468
Look up the copywrite history of the word "edge." It's kinda interesting.

>>33215494
>>33215900
Hey fuck off, those amerilards can barely read their own dumbed down version of english. Expecting them to understand Japanese is completely insane.

>>33216029
We're too busy to learn your stupid language

>>33215205
Yes.

>>33215997
You mean trademark history, but yeah, that shit is neat to learn about. It's weird what some people will try to trademark, you can trademark colors or smells even.

>>33215205

kid, in the anime or either the game orange sky means dusk

>>33215254
>>33215891
This. Also dusk and twilight can mean the same. Twilight and dusk both refer to when the sun is below the horizon

>>33215205
Green flashes and green rays are optical phenomena that sometimes occur just before sunset or right after sunrise.

>>33215254
>I guarantee this new Lycanroc is equally as involved with the dusk as it is with the dawn.
Well the footage we have shows it evolving at dusk, so you'd be pretty dumb to think it'll evolve to Dusk Form at dawn. They obviously named it Dusk for a reason, gobshite.

As somebody who is actually very into IP law, just because it's not supposed to be doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

There have been times where that sort of stuff has been copyright and trademarked and people have sued others for violating it.

It's because it sounds like Dust and it's a rock type

There.

are you that retard that thinks Flamethrower is "Flame Emission" even though "kaenhosha" is literally what japs call flamethrower?

>>33215494
They mean twilight but they don't include dawn.
Not in french anyway, twilight is just dusk, sunset, we don't use it for dawn.

>>33215494
>>33215646
>>33218711
lol

>>33218689
Did I put Flamethrower up there? I didn't, because it doesn't have an English name in the Japanese version.

I only included the three evolutionary stones to display that Dusk and Dawn are not actual counterparts (Shiny and Dusk are), and the translators were retarded for doing so.

>>33218711
>Not in french anyway, twilight is just dusk, sunset, we don't use it for dawn.
Yes, yes in french. Almost nobody use "twilight" as "dawn" but it's still legit. Twilight fits for both, dusk and dawn, even if most of people around the world only use it for dusk.

>>33215230
Do note though that tasogare specifically refers to the twilight around sunset. Dusk is a more-than adequate translation.

>>33215279
>>33215494
>get the names of Lycanroc's other two forms wrong
>their translation of the third form's name is considered more correct than the English or Japanese
I want third-worlders to leave.

>>33215900
English and Japanese, you mean.

>>33215646
This. I had literally never heard tasogare used to mean dawn before, and had to google around to realize it could actually be used that way.

>>33218443
Not sure what point you're trying to make with the move names or why you can't seem to crop. The localized stone names are stupid, as was giving Pawniard/Bisharp a chess theme and, although it took 20 years, not directly translating the original Poke Ball names ended up biting them in the ass (Ultra/Beast Balls).

>>33218443
Most of those are better in english though. Actually, the only one that's better in Japanese is Nitro Charge.

Stop being a weeb

That bit them in the ass right away. Even gen 1 had promotional art depicting the "Ultra Ball" as a ball with a giant H for Hyper written on it.

>>33220056
The latter fits Zygrarde's theme as a keeper of order more. He's enforcing the rules of nature

Gonna paste this from the other thread I explained it in. This is the reason.

"Tasogare", while meaning "twilight", also is "dusk" in Japanese.

The word for "dawn" is "yoake", so while Dusk is "Tasogare Form" in Japanese, Dawn would be "Yoake Form".

Not that this matters since there probably won't be a Dawn Form, but if there is or could be, now you at least know what it'll be called in Japanese.

>>33220388
There's several words for dawn. "Akatsuki" is common, and the ACTUAL opposite to tasogare is "kawatare".

>>33220481
"Kawataredoki", which is what you actually meant, is a rather archaic word and is also used in reference to Dusk as well.

"Yoake" is the modern and much more common term used in comparison as the opposite to "Tasogare".

"Akatsuki", however, is another possible word that could be used for the hypothetical "Dawn" form since Japan loves using that word for everything in their media, so you're still not off.

>>33220587
You can use kawatare on its own, though it's less common. Tasogaredoki can also be used instead of tasogare.

>>33220595
"Tasogaredoki" is the archaic form that was scrapped for "Tasogare" in modern times. No one ever uses it and you never hear it spoken or referenced for that reason.

"Dawn Form" will either be "Yoake" or "Akatsuki". Plain and simple.

Regardless and much more importantly, OP's question has been answered. Even if they're probably not even reading anymore.

>twilight form
>aurora form if there's another form which I doubt it
It's not that hard, burgers.
